Bathroom resealing for homes and businesses in Riverhead
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. Once it cracks or goes mouldy, water starts to find its way through and into the wall or floor. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We are often asked to deal with mouldy sealant that has gone black and lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt, on baths, sinks & splashbacks and basins & vanity units.
Homes around Riverhead range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Riverhead as everywhere else we work.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Never pick at the silicone with a blade
- Let new sealant cure fully before it gets wet
- Dry the bead with a towel now and then
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
Wipe up standing water along the worktop joint and keep hot pans off the bead. The drier the joint stays, the longer it lasts.
Small signs come before a leak: a corner lifting, a gap behind the bead, a dark line under the silicone or a damp patch on the ceiling below. If you spot one, it’s time to reseal.

Riverhead: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Riverhead?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Do the sealants smell?

Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
Most people choose white or clear, but other colours can be used to suit tiles and worktops. Let us know your preference when you ask for a quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
What affects the cost of bathroom resealing
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The type of sealant required
- Any working-time requirements on site
Doing several joints on one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
- The type of property
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We do not publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
If a wet room leaks, the cause may be the tanking or the drain rather than the joints. We check the joints and say so if the fault looks to be elsewhere.
Kitchen worktops & upstands
Worktop joints get wet and wiped every day. The new bead is colour-matched where it shows, so the line doesn’t stand out.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Riverhead
Riverhead has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Managing a site like Amherst School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Sevenoaks station, fresh sealant around the bath, shower and sink between tenancies helps a property present well and keeps leaks at bay.

What sealant work can’t fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Water getting in through the grout rather than the sealant
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. In a smaller place like Riverhead, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- Protection goes down around the bath, shower or worktop.
- Old sealant is sliced away and the residue removed.
- Mould is treated, then the joint is left to dry thoroughly.
- Any bath is filled with water, then we lay a bead of anti-fungal silicone in white, clear or a matching colour.
- We finish the joint, clear up and tell you how long to leave it before it gets wet.
Getting ready for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
